Educational Possibilities and Facilities

Time to think more than outside the box...

think inside the mind!

What should education look like in this time and space... and in the next 100 years.

Yes I said 100 years.

Do the same thinking and planning the people who built the buildings that today we are replacing.

Challenge ideas that dictate schedules, grades, staff, learning needs, buildings, transportation, budgets, and everything!!!

Alternative Schools an Alternative for What?

Alternative schools are about providing an alternative to the traditional high school environment. Do they really or do they just move students from one non-successful environment to another one that does not provide the rigid antiquated settings. Does the new alternative environment require a student to do more than breathe to get the diploma? When students are not required to attend as often, be on time (regular school hours), and do not complete the entire subject area studies, is that an alternative for what? Is it really helping students or just helping the schools graduation rates. Does life after graduation provide and alternative for students now adults who are not successful? Very rarely.... Instead of offering 'Alternative Schools' why don't we provide 'Alternative Teachers and Administrators'. Does that not make more sense?
